The School of American Ballet and New York City Ballet co-hosted the annual Nutcracker Family Benefit. Over 600 guests enjoyed a performance of 'George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker®' followed by a Holiday Party on the Promenade of the David H. Koch Theater. The party decor featured festive green colors and Gingerbread House centerpieces. Cast members from Sugarplum Fairy to the little Bunny Soldier joined guests to sign autographs and pose for photos. Even Santa himself came out to say hello! Proceeds from the Nutcracker Family Benefit support the School’s Scholarship Fund and New York City Ballet and its educational programs. Photos by Erin Baiano
